The Leela Palace New Delhi sets a new global benchmark with Condé Nast Traveler's inaugural Triple Crown award

A landmark moment for Indian hospitality — The Leela Palace New Delhi has become the first hotel in the world to win Condé Nast Traveler’s inaugural Triple Crown award, setting a new global benchmark.

What the Triple Crown Means
- Awarded only to properties that have achieved all three flagship accolades:
- The Hot List (won in 2011)
- The Gold List (twice)
- Readers’ Choice Awards (India’s favorite for many years)
- Recognizes absolute excellence in service, design, and guest experience.

Why The Leela Palace New Delhi Stands Out
- A legacy of sustained excellence and consistent recognition by both critics and guests.
- 254 spacious rooms and suites, each over 550 sq. ft., plus a Presidential Suite spanning 4,800 sq. ft.
- Dining experiences that rival the world’s best:
- Jamavar (royal Indian cuisine)
- The Qube (global flavors)
- MEGU (modern Japanese)
- Le Cirque (Franco-Italian fine dining)
- The Library Bar (sophisticated retreat)
- Wellness offerings at The Spa and The Salon, blending luxury with rejuvenation.

Leadership Insight
Ms. Preeti Makhija, General Manager, called the award “a tribute to the team… the ultimate affirmation of our legacy.”

Significance
This recognition places The Leela Palace New Delhi among the world’s most acclaimed hotels, reinforcing India’s position on the global luxury hospitality map.
